Very good game at Old Trafford yesterday, have a feeling that they'll do well in the fa cup this year. Something tells me that Man Utd will play Man City away in the next round, hope I'm wrong lol

This transfer window has been an interesting one. I'm not going to lie when I say this but I really don't want Jorginho going to Arsenal. It's like Edu has not learnt from his past mistakes in signing ex players from Chelsea that were somewhat past it. I have to question Edu's negotiation skills because what the hell is this?

That was my first thought when I heard about Jorginho, shades of David Luiz, Willian (although he seems to be doing ok at Fulham) and Petr Cech who was a great keeper in his day but well past his best when he joined Arsenal. Apparently Chelsea fans are having a whip round for Jorginho's cab fare to Arsenal😂 |

My hope now is players like Partey, Saka, Martinelli, Zinchenko, Saliba and Magalhaes are wrapped in cotton wool between now and the end of the season otherwise we're finished. |

Surprised Chelsea's spending binge hasn't been investigated, over £150m this month  |

Personally, I don't want Jorginho but to say your questioning Edu is incredibly harsh considering the very good business he has done in the last few transfer windows. I remember when fans, including myself, did the same with Ramsdale and yet he has been brilliant - Jorginho has been an Arteta target for a while so I'm willing to trust them just like I did with Zinchenko, another I wasn't keen on but absolutely has proved me wrong. This doesn't smack of Willian to me, 18 month contract for Jorginho and I suspect he will only be squad player with us for Europa League games at best rather than first team at Chelsea |

It will be interesting to see if they make champions league next season. |

Notably getting sent off against the boys from N17. Ramsdale was another in which made me raise my eyebrows (courtesy of The Rock) having been with teams that got relegated back to back. But we will see how this fares on between now and May. We do need to plan long term though with more additions. |

We have planned long term - most likely, Caicedo & Rice will be our summer targets and I suspect we'll get Caicedo (not convinced we'll get Rice though). |

Not surprised to see a stalemate between Fulham and Chelsea, I can't see all those big money purchases gel anytime soon, unless they upgrade the manager. Brentford could move into 6th with a win over Southampton today |

It’s not comparable to what Mikel inherited or what situation Arsenal was in at all |

Do these players not know how to flipping shoot. FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!
This may feel like a big loss come the end of the season.
I'm not even trying to hear "We CaN'T wIn EvErY gAmE" today.

Do you know what's even more hilarious a good friend of mine had to remind me that we haven't won at Goodison Park since Arsene Wenger's last season. I laughed so much that I started weeping when he said that.
That is disgraceful.
